7. USER SETTINGS

7.1 What are the Settings You Need?

The installer provides you with a ready-to-use alarm
system, almost entirely tailored to your requirements, but a
few settings and adjustments will still be needed.
Note: Although the user settings are your responsibility,
you may request your installer to perform them for you
(except for the follow-me phone number, which you must
re-program to follow your whereabouts, and user codes,
which you would like to keep secret).
The user settings include:
• Bypassing Zones - determining which zones will be
bypassed (disabled) throughout the present disarm period
and the next armed period.
• Reviewing the bypass list - "show bypass" - displaying
the numbers and names of bypassed zone one by one.
• Recalling the last bypassing scheme - "recall bypass" -
re-using the previous bypassing scheme, which becomes
suspended after disarming but is still saved in the
PowerMax memory.
• Programming
the
number* - recording the number at which you can be
reached while being away. The PowerMax will call this
number to report the event types defined by the installer.
• Setting user codes* - programming a security code for
yourself and additional 7 codes for other system users.
Codes 5 through 8 are "Latchkey" user codes (see Para.
2.9 for additional details).
• Setting voice options* - selecting between verbal
announcements and no verbal announcements.
• Setting the time* - adjusting the built-in clock to show
the correct time.

accessible functions are the first 3 on the list.

7.2 Entering the User Settings Menu

When the system is in the disarmed state, and all zones
are secured (undisturbed), the display will read:
